PARIS, June 24.-The Senate to-day
discussed the report of the committee ON
the consumption Of spirits. M. Claude

dutiable article, and it behooves the
State to prevent its excessive consump-
ton, at the same time securing the ut
most profit to the Treasury by the sup
preston of adulteration and other frauds.

OCTOBER {
THE LOGICAL RELIGION.

There are two theories OF the origin
of man which, even in our everyday
life. we are forced to consider.
One is that he was Of divine origin,
with the inspiration of our all wise and
benifcent God, in whose image he was
made. And this theory shows that man,
by his passions, fell, and that he was re-
deemed. 1t shows the Christ in the i'm
bodiment of humanity with an intellect
10 understand his surroundings and
destiny, and with a spiritual sense to see
his connection with his God.
There is no denying that the man who
is able to think must argue between these
two ideas that present themselves to him.
The other idea is that mans origin was
an animal, and that his tail was shed as
he learned something from his mental
growth.
If the intellect of man can be evolved
according to the physical development,
we come to a downright contradiction
when we see that the more intellectual
man becomes the more utterly helpless
is the infant in the first year of its
growth.
The author of the " Unity of Nature y
lays down the truth of a God by show
ing that the insects cooperate to produce
results of which they are ignorant, and in
doing which they are unconscious Of
each other.
OF course, as be concludes, there must
be an outside architect that directs the
operations of these creatures in a great
system that the finite mind Of man is not
capable of understanding. Hence the
Christian faith.

"Oh. by the way he chirruped, stop

ing the rear of his trousers as a pawn in
